Sole fillet • 180 mm • Mighty • molybdenum vanadium en tungsten • western pakka handle • for right and left hand use
This extremely flexible fillet knife is the thinnest knife we make. With an average thickness of less than 1.0mm, this blade can be flexed to nearly a 90-degree angle. Perfect for filleting delicate flatfish such as sole and flounder. Because of the narrow profile and extremely thin blade, this knife is also great for slicing bite-size pieces of sashimi from a ready-to-cut section of sashimi-grade fish.
When I first started with sharpening of the knives, together with my grandfather in 1994, we used to go to many restaurant in The Hague to sharpen. Later, when I took over, I was able to do it all myself. In 1998 I came to the restaurant Seinpost, back then with Paul van Waarden as a head chef, to sharpen their knives. Gert Jan Cieremans, the last chef of now closed restauant Seinpost, has been working there already for 2 years as a chef de partie. Mr. kuntz also has been working there in the kitchen and he owned a MAC. He was truly lyrical about it. I was allowed to sharpen it for him and ever since fell in love with Japanese knives. It's a joy to sharpen, they keep their extreem sharpness for a longer time than the knives I've known.
My first order with MAC were 6 knives from the Original serie. I gave them all to few chefs I know to hear their opinion about them. Of course, they were never returned to me- it was truly the best knfe they've ever used. Since then MAC has become very popular in the kitchens of Dutch restaurants.
